Hello, in the past few months I have been struggling with a cyano/algae outbreak. A few months ago, in march, I used to over feed my tank and that is what I believe might have les to the issue. A few months ago, a huge amount of cyano appeared and started completely covering my tank, a month or 2 after that, green film algae shared the spot, and now I have bubble algae and hair algae as well. Anytime I introduce coral, algae and coraline grows right over them. I have done many water changes, introduced phosphogen and carbon, and cleaned the tank during the water changes. Barely any improvement. Recently, in the past month I have gotten an explosion in coralline algae (most likely due to more stable conditions). Is there any way I can remove this algae so I can get corals again?
I have one clownfish, 3 nerite snails, 3 ceriths, 6 hermits.
It seems like my alkalinity has been low in the past few months, I’ve recently began dosing it to get to normal levels.
